Rev. A. J. Joslyn, pastor of the
M. E. church at Shoshone, will
lpreach in the Baptist church at
this place, on the evenings of Fri
day, August Goth, and Sunday,
August 2sth. All are invited.
Those antidiluvian magic lam
tern bilks who steer for Idaho with
the idea that all people out here are
chumps and green-horns, should
hereby take warning. The Cald-
well Board of Trade has appointed
committee to hang the next one
that comes along, and by the beard
of Dan Brown, we'll do it.
Until recently We have always
entertained the highest respect for
Dan Brown. But while at Mt.
Home the other day we discovered
the secret of his past life. Brown
used to work. He even went so far
as to claim to be the champion bar
ley sower Of Idaho. That settles
it. We've no use for a man that
works.
Some tramps were monkey

Al. Butts ordered them away.

Brown came up and run them in

Pete Jewel, a stone mason who
has been around here. for some
time past, attempted to skip the
town the other day, leaving some
board and whisky bills unpaid.
He was overtaken and brought |
back by an officer, but as he has
no money or property, judg-
ment against him amounts to moth
ing. He was turned loose.

AzUsA, and Duarte are known as
among the very choicest sections OF
this county. They are also known as
among the best watered districts in this
irrigation belt. Just now there is a
little speck OF war between two rival
claimants to the waters OF the San
Gabriel river at that point. 1t is not
probable that any prolonged or serious
difficulty can arise out of this bit of
disagreement. The ditch which con-
yeys water to Duarte and to the Old
Dalton, or Azusa ranch is a score Of
years old-much more than that. The
water has been used along this ditch
during all these years. There is a
right so vested that no court can ever
be found to disturb it. The Covina
ditch claims the surplus water
from the canon, and it
is not doubtful that there will be
discovered to be plenty OF the aqueous
fluid in the San Gabriel to more than
satiate both nterests-unless st. John
sh ould colonize Covina from Kansas,
as this sprightly and growing town is
a prohibition settlement. In case
they drink too much water in the nat
ural state, the supply for irrigation
might become scant. One thing is
clear to the courts, the old Azusa
ditch has rights which cannot be
questioned.

PROHIBITION is not the only heresy
by which the Republican party is rent
in this present year of grace. How
bitter are the attacks on Mr.. Pixley's
American party, and how dearly they
delight to speak with contempt OF
"Pat Wiggington." Now it does not
appear that the cognomen of this
leader of the Knownothings is ''Pat. "
He certainly is not of Irish birth OF
descent. If it may not be said as OF
''Taffy," "Wiggy is Welshman, u
etc., there is much reason to believe
that the old rhyme strikes quite near
the truth. But the party is re-
ferred to as "a useless party"
and the new governor has not made
many friends among the straight Re-
publicans by the appointment of Mr..
Pixley's companion-in-arms-we dc
not mean that historic companion Of
the editor of the Argonaut so often
referred to. but now supposed to be
deceased-to be his private Secretary.
And then there are the Mugwumps
who show no sign of returning to the
true fold. The New York Post re-
Gently in speaking Of the ticket put in

cans, says: The best thing in it is

The Sovereign Grand Lodge Of the
Universe of the l. o. o. F., now in
session at Denver, after spirited con-
tsst between a great many cities of
the Union, at length decided last
night to hold the next annual meeting
in Los Angeles. The Odd Fellows
cease to be odd in this repect, as all
the world is more than anxious to
visit this most eclectic spot on the
good green earth. Yet the Sovereign
Grand Lodge is still true to its oddness,
in that it is the first convention of the
sort to be assembled in this city. The
men of the three mystic links shall
have right royal welcome to the met
ropolis of Southern California, and will
return home delighted with their trip
across the continent, and their exper-
ience amid the orange groves and
vineyards of this part of the Golden
State.

ST.. JOHN, the Prohibition can
didate for the presidency in
the last campaign, is in Los
Angeles. He proposes to speak at
Armory Hall this evening, and no
doubt that place will be filed to the
doors on that occasion by people who
wish to see this apostle OF teetotalism,
some of whom will also be curious to
hear what he may find to say. Mr..
Blaine is in Europe, but for all that he
is intimately acquaintel i with the most
minute details of American politics.
AS ever, the eye OF the man from
Maine is wide open on the Prohibition
party. From Homburg he has found
time from hobnobbing with "my
friend Wales" to write home that the
cold water people must not be let stray
from the Republican fold. Part of the
programme as outlined is to give st.
John and Neal Dow undiluted brim-
stone. These men who are
leading the silly sheep away from
the true fold are to receive no quarter
hut with a divine forbearance the
s'silly sheep" are to be handled with
great tenderness. All this means just
this: st. John and Dow, with few
other advocates OF plain irrigation, are
known to have their eyeteeth well cut
as to the Republican party and its
temperance principles. But the FRO
hibition people as a rule are dyed-ln'
Republicans, and 1t goes
hard against the grain for them to
holt from the &. o. p. Ihey are,
a thoroughly gullible lot,
easily led by the nose, and trusting In
mite OF long and bitter experience in
he promises OF the party which has
,lways been ready to promise, and
"a ready to break its faith to
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-09-24

the teetotalers. More promises are,
therefore, to be made in order to stop
any bolt that may be in progress, to
pull the wool over the eyes of such
silly sheep as st. John and Neal Dow
may show the truth. Why, all one
has to do is to pass from Maine, Kan
sas, Iowa or any other stronghold of
the temperance crusaders, to New
York to learn just how much Prohibi-
ton there is in the Republican party.
The platform of the party in the En-
pire State is plain-spoken in favor of
abolishing the internal revenue tax on
whisky, so that this abomination of
the St. Johnites may be sold at about
half the price it now goes out of the
distilleries at. This 'hurtful luxury"
as Mr.. Blaine calls it-when he is
not engaged in a liberal inn
bibition of the mountain dew
now pays revenue of 500, 100000 a
year, including the tax on beer and
kindred beverages, but is to be free as
the pelucid stream along the mountain
side, or the winds of heaven. That
is Republican Prohibition in a nut
shell. 1t has been Republican Pro-
hibition for score of years. And yet
St. John and Neal Dow, who know
there is no hope in that party, will not
be able to keep open the eyes of the
"silly sheep" The seductive voice
of Mr.. Blaine will be heard full of
honeyed promises, and to the Repub-
lican fold the great mass of the
teetotalers will march as lambs to the
slaughter, leaving their true guides
desolate and alone in a barren desert
where votes grow not.

school man who could not put up
his guards? Who ever met a gradu-
ate of Cambridge or Oxford who could
not hit out straight from the shoulder ?
The student may be engaged in the
study of theology, and the graduate
may wear "the cloth" cut after the
fashion of the "straightest of the
sects," all the same if he took his
degree at any OF the great seats of
learning, the probability is he can hit
out like a catapult. Nor does boxing
seem to be in any respect "brutal" or
"demoralizing" in its effects. If
boxing is done by demoral-
lied brutes Objectionable features
may be found surrounding it,
but the brutality comes from other
sources, and the decentralization was
wrought by other influences. Ath-
letic contests of all sorts should, be en-
couraged. John Boyle O'Reilly is a
famous pugilist, and it is safe to say
he is as moral and as far removed from
brutality as the man who writes for
the San Francisco daily. These ath-
letic pastimes protect young people
from the most tdemoralizing and name
less vices which grow up amid idle
ness and too sedantary habits. Fur
thermore, when it comes to downright
fighting, even that is far from being
an unmixed evil. A right hard con-
test, in which man gives and re-
ceives severe knocks, will prevent the
growth of cowardice in the SOUL and
courage is large part of manhood.
Courage-just plain absence OF phys
ical fear-among the Romans was syn
onymous with the highest conception
of manhood known to that great peo-
pie. All the highest forms of animal
life include the power and willingness
to fight. All the most progressive
races of the age, and of every other
age, have been famous fighters. The
world needs fighting animals, and can
not make any progress. nor ever main-
tain her present status without fight
ers.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-09-24

THE Republican party is in a sore
plight for cause to 60 before the peo
pie on. When a great national party
has to stoop to setting spies on the
wife of the President to watch if by
inadvertence she fails to shake hands
with some one, in order to get up a
grievance of national moment, the
sight is sad. When the only other
thing left to such a party is q twin
plaint, like this civil service business,
the demand is exigent for tears-more
tears. What is the matter, anyway,
with this civil service reform
Is it not reformed, or will it
not stay reformed? The Pen
dleton bill has now had force of
law for many years. President Arthur,
during his term, was supposed to have
enforced the law in this respect with
due attention to its letter and spirit.
Did that enforcement not reform the
service in any degree? Is not Mr..
Cleveland carrying out the provisions
OF this statute in a fair spirit? If he
is not, will some one point wherein he
is violating it? The whole thing is
simply this: the Republican party has
no living principles, and is forced to
60 to the country with a mere shib-
boleth. They trust that the voters
will take up this inane cry and be
guided by its dulcet notes in lieu of
the directing light of some great and
luminous principle. The plan will
not work.

SAN Francisco is in the throes ol
direst trouble about exhibitions of the
"manly art" AS the case stands a
sparring match cannot take place
without a permit from the Mayor,
But change in the law is being en-.
gineered by Supervisor Curran, by
which this power would be vested in
the Committee on Health and Police
in the Board of Supervisors. Curran
is Chairman of that committee, and
the natural inference is that the
change proposed is in the interest Of
more latitude in this respect, as Mayor
Pond will not grant a permit under
any circumstances. A San Francisco
contemporary, in speaking Of the mat
ter, characterizes these exhibitions OF
fistic skill as "demoralizing and bruta
prize fights" "uncivilized displays, "
"the brutal but lucrative industry of
slogging." 1t would seem as if these
expressions were unnecessarily strong.
Boxing is certainly not uncivilized by
any means. No barbarous race, no
degraded people ever cultivated the
art OF self-defence, using the fists as
the only weapons of warfare. On the
contrary the Greeks in their palmie st
days, and the Romans when thev had
fallen heirs to the cultivation of the
Greeks, were famous for their fistic
skill. Throughout the world to-day un-
civilized people universally know
nothing of pugilistic science; and as
universally all civilized races are box
ers. Moreover, this art has alway.
taken deep root and fourished side by
side with the deepest and soundes
learning of all time, and beneath til,
classic shades of all tho
great schools and universitie.
